I really appreciated this analysis and taking to task of Laplaces' demon. As someone unfamiliar with a lot of these examples I found myself still gripped and interested by the elegant and matter of fact writing style you had. It really made the subject much more tenable to grasp for all kinds of readers, something not easily done by many in your field. All in all an eloquent paper that satiated my curiosity while at the same time piqued my interest for more understanding of the other topics and examples you brought up.
